What if I told you this is what I’ve been eating for dinner lately?
It’s true…guilty as charged…I was on a few-day dessert-for-dinner kick, which began and ended with these sweet potato brownies. I’d heat a couple of them up and enjoy them with a big scoop of ice cream. I’ll just save you the time and tell you I’ve found they’re particularly tasty with cookie dough and/or pistachio ice cream so that you don’t have to go troubleshooting all the flavors to find the perfect pairing. Yeeer welcome 😉

Regardless of what time of day you consume these beauties, they are one of the best brownies I’ve ever made! In fact, I daresay they may be the actual best. They melt on your tongue, they’re a great source of sweet potato, and they’re fabulously easy to make. Here’s the breakdown of the brownie features and characteristics:
  • Gluten-free and grain-free
  • Paleo
  • Refined sugar-free (except for the sugar in the chocolate chips, which you can omit)
  • Dairy-free
  • Super moist and melt-in-your-mouthy
  • Fudgy
  • Intensely sweet and dark
  • Can’t taste the sweet potato
These beauties are prepared in your blender or food processor to make the whole experience very quick and easy. The only time-consuming part about this recipe is roasting the sweet potato. If you have the forethought, you can roast it up to 3 days ahead of time (which was what I did), so that you go to make the recipe, it’s just a matter of tossing all the ingredients in a blender.

You can adapt these brownies to your liking, adding chopped nuts, omitting the chocolate chips if you need these to be entirely free of refined sugar, using mashed butternut squash, pumpkin, or any other winter squash in place of sweet potato, replacing some of the mashed sweet potato with almond butter or peanut butter for that nut butter essence…you do you, boo.
I will call out an important little detail – the sprinkle of coarse sea salt on top….MEGA! I’m all about the salty-sweet combo, and there’s something about having that slight salt tinge to offset the intense sweet chocolaty goo that sends my face buds into overdrive. You don’t want to miss it, my FOMO friends!

^You can even see the sweet potato…BANGARANG!
So here’s what we do, Monday: Roast a sweet potato, blend it up with some brownie ingredients, bake it off, let it rest, consume for dinner. Or dessert…or snack…bring it to your yoga studio…there’s nothing you can do to make this go wrong.
Dinner tonight:

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Wash and pat dry the sweet potato. Poke it several times with a fork, wrap it in foil, and roast at 400 degrees F for 60 to 70 minutes, or until very soft. Allow sweet potato to cool to room temperature (Note: You can roast the sweet potato up to 3 days ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator until ready to use).
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly oil an 8" x 8" baking dish. Line the baking dish with parchment paper.
  3. Add all ingredients for the brownies except for the chocolate chips to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips
  4. Transfer the brownie batter to the prepared baking dish. Bake on the center rack of the oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center is set up (note: the brownies won't test clean when poked with a fork...this is normal). Turn off the oven and allow brownies to sit another 5 minutes in the warm oven.
  5. Remove brownies from the oven and sprinkle with coarse sea salt (if desired...very much recommended). Allow brownies to cool at least 30 minutes. Pull on the sides of the parchment paper to release the brownies from the baking dish and transfer to a cutting board. Cut brownies to your desired size and enjoy with a mega scoop of ice cream!

WINNING! Does anyone else get a kick out of the psychology of food in relationships? You know that dance most couples do come 6pm? One person doesn’t care what they both eat, but the other person does, but he/she doesn’t want to make a big deal or cause a scene, so he/she’s super unspecific and vague about what he/she wants to eat, so the person who doesn’t care chooses because all he/she wants to do is find a solution and  eat , and the person who does care gets frustrated and makes a big deal and causes a scene because that’s not what he/she wanted, and their partner should know him/her well enough by now, and then there’s this passive-aggressive non-argument that leads to irritation for both people until dinner’s finally over and Netflix he...

SALMON AND ROOT VEGETABLE SHEET PAN DINNER

SALMON AND ROOT VEGETABLE SHEET PAN DINNER A one-pan sheet pan dinner recipe with winter root vegetables and salmon. A quick, adaptable recipe perfect for chilly winter evenings in, and the perfect go-to for paleo or Whole30 meals.   Aside from the snow, one of my favorite parts about winter is the produce. I bet you can guess why…  it’s because root vegetables are in season during the winter. Roots are incredibly nutritious, and are a brilliant for those who are looking to step up their vitamin and mineral intake, or for those who are looking for antinflammatory, antioxidant-rich foods. While this meal can be prepared using seasonal produce from any time of year, I’m loving the use of root vegetables for a speedy quick, comforting winter sheet pan dinner. It’s been long time since I’ve highlighted a new root vegetable on the blog, so I thought I’d talk about sunchokes for a hot second. Who here has heard of, tasted, and/or loves sunchokes? They’re such a coo...
